This is a 2-D Digital animation by a popular animator on youtube. They utilize followthrough with the movement of the mermaid's hair underwater, and in some cases the movement of the fish. All around, they use the physics of swimming to create that smooth action of following through.
Another hand-drawn 2D animation, this one focuses a lot on composition and lighting, creating a solid drawing. The animator uses their knowledge of the principles and elements of design and takes it to a further level by applying it to animation, something which few animators can do. They don't just focus on movement or simple actions, they also take into account color, movement, line, value, shading -- everything that would make a traditional art piece and puts that all into each frame of their piece.
